truck rack

I have a 2008 access cab. I'm looking for a rack system that is quickly removeable and is compatable with a tonneau cover. I haul two sea kayaks. Any suggestions?

 

Needing more information.

To me sea kayaks imply boats of significant length, say 12'6" or longer, which will necessitate them being over the cab and hood as well, so I am not thinking a hard tonneau with a rack on that will work for you, so I figure you are looking for something of a ladder rack for the bed, which will support the kayaks in the middle with a portion of them being over the cab area, and a portion being behind the tailgate. I am pretty sure that any kind of permenant style ladder rack will not play nice with any kind of tonneau cover.

Perhaps the canopy style truck cap thing that Piercedtiger has may be what you are looking for, depending on the load capacity of the bars when the canopy is not on it. (BTW tiger, what the hell is the proper name for that thing again?)

The other option I can come up with is the Thule 421 xporter. Linked here

The Xporter is a height adjustable rack system, that can be raised or lowered depending on your needs, but I do not thing that it drops to below the bed rails when not in use, so it would likely still need to be removed so you could re-install your tonneau cover, but i believe that it would take up less space in your garage while stored than a full bore ladder rack would, and it's about half the price of a contractor grade ladder rack as well.

 

i have a yakima rack on the top of my truck..........I leave it on all the time....but can take it off if i want
